Answer:
Part a) GK=(7x+1)
Part b) GH=5 units and JK=8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a) what algebraic expression represents GK?
we know that
GK=GH+HJ+JK
step 1
Find GH
we have
GH=GJ-HJ
substitute the given values
GH=(2x+3)-x=x+3
step 2
Find JK
JK=HK-HJ
substitute the given values
JK=(6x-2)-x=5x-2
step 3
Find GK
GK=GH+HJ+JK
we have
GH=x+3
HJ=x
JK=5x-2
substitute
GK=(x+3)+x+(5x-2)
GK=(7x+1)
Part b) If GK=15, what are GH and JK?
we know that
GK=(7x+1)
For GK=15
substitute the value of GK and solve for x
15=(7x+1)
7x=15-1
7x=14
x=2
<u><em>Find the value of GH</em></u>
GH=x+3
substitute the value of x
GH=2+3=5 units
<u><em>Find the value of JK</em></u>
JK=5x-2
substitute the value of x
JK=5(2)-2=8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
4⅘=22/5.

please can i have a brainliest
You have to have one side equal x so I’ll solve one from each section
e) x = 2
5x = 12 - x
add x to both sides
6x = 12
divide both sides by 6
x = 2
k) x = 3
15x + 4 = 10x + 19
move the 4 to the other side by subtracting on both sides
15x = 10x + 15
subtract 10x from both sides
5x = 15
divide by sides by 5
x = 3
